Needed another stay to earn the 10K points for the Possibilities Promotion so I made the reservation here via hyatt.com @ the AAA rate for a 1 bed king non smoking.

Hotel property is just off of Rosecrans, west of Aviation and is adjacent to the office buildings/parking structure to the south that face Rosecrans as well as the Green Line right of way to the north and east. Parking rings all three sides of the hotel's building complex.

Check-in was easy enough and I was offered my option to select drinks from the pantry area - I'm assuming as a Platinum and having never stayed at a Summerfield Suites before. Wasn't requested to sign any forms regarding "No Parties". I had no issues with the front desk staff. Outdoor pool is at the center of the hotel's building complex. Parking is free - assuming that there are enough spaces when the property is full.

Since the MR was on a Saturday, most/all of those that I saw in and around the complex and pool were families. Given that the rates increase during the week, likely more business dominant during weekdays.

Others have noted the access to the rooms is via stairs. The other point I'd make is that the rooms starting with even numbers (2, 4, 6, etc.) have doors that face outward toward the parking areas and the odd starting rooms face inward to the hotel complex and pool. Given the room accessibility from anywhere, there's not as much security as compared to other hotels where you need to swipe to access corridors to rooms. I'll let others who would have greater security concerns address this one - and also not knowing if this is the standard configuration for Summerfield Suites. In addition, if anyone who's stayed here on the outer even numbered rooms has feedback on the noise from autos/Green Line, that might also be helpful.

Room's furnishings were/are on the new side - flat panel TV, decent kitchen with full fridge, good size closet spaces. I personally would prefer this brand to the Hyatt Place properties that I've stayed at. I would compare the brand directly with the Residence Inn line for Marriott and Homewood Suites for Hilton. Bed was comfortable for all of the 5 minutes I spent flipping thru the channels. If I recall, there was a menu button and all of the requisites to purchase movies, etc. on demand.

Other reviewers in this thread have mentioned some of the menus for evening snacks/food. Also, since this was a MR, I didn't stick around for breakfast.

For the location, will consider this property again as a MR option if needed but would prefer something a few dollars cheaper - AAA rate was $139. Rates during the week (not AAA) are right coming up starting @ $156 for the same 1 bed king.
